Yankees MILB 8/9: Oswald Peraza Homers
News: The Yankees acquired OF Cam Eden from the Blue Jays for cash considerations. “I thought the trade deadline was a hard deadline!” It is. However, any player who has not appeared on a 40-man roster this season can be traded. Eden was on a 40-man roster in 2023, but not in 2024. The 26-year-old, who has […]
Yankees MILB 8/8: Caleb Durbin Drives in 3

The second game of tonight’s doubleheader was postponed due to rain) DH Caleb Durbin: 2-for-4, 2B (18), SF, 3 RBI, K Including his time in Somerset/Tampa, Durbin has 20 doubles in 56 games.

Yankees MILB 8/7: Zach Messinger Tosses 7 Scoreless Innings
News: The Yankees have dipped in “organizational” prospect rankings. Do I worry about that? No. I thought they wouldn’t be very high on the preseason rankings. I consider the latest lists to be a market correction. Scranton (60-47) (Lead Lehigh Valley, 3-0, in the third inning. This game was suspended. Game 2 was postponed. These […]
Yankees MILB 8/6: Spencer Jones Continues Surge
News: Today was a mass promotion day. With that, more cuts were required. That is the harsh reality of minor-league baseball. The biggest name on the promotion list is George Lombard Jr., who is off to Hudson Valley. Last year’s first-round pick didn’t have overwhelming numbers (.232/.344/.348 (105 wRC+); 12.8% BB, 24% K, 30-for-34 SB) but […]
Yankees MILB 8/2: Francisco Vilorio Homers Twice
News: Since the Olympics are front and center, the last few days with the “thrill of victory” (promotions) and the “agony of defeat” (releases). It’s the unfortunate reality of prospect-watching. The releases are RHP Montana Semmel, RHP Nicio Rodriguez, RHP Nick Paciorek, 3B Beau Brewer, and CF Nelson Medina. There are other players down in the FCL/DSL, as […]
Yankees MILB 8/1: Zach Messinger Goes 7 Strong
News: LHP Chasen Shreve was released from his contract for Scranton. Today is August 1st, so the odds are good that he had an opt-out. He pitched in ten games for Scranton, posting a 2.45 ERA in 11 innings. As I pointed out yesterday, RHP Nick Burdi has options. Today, his rehab stint ended and he was […]
Yankees MILB 7/31: Jesus Rodriguez: HR, 4 RBI
News: Brian Cashman said Jack Flaherty‘s medical records didn’t scare the Yankees. Without any evidence to support my theory, I think the Tigers and Yankees had a deal in place (whether the Cardinals were involved, who knows?). The Yankees saw the medicals and tried to amend the terms. The Tigers didn’t like the “secondary” prospects the […]
